Grilled Garlic Butter Sea Bass

🧂 Ingredients

• 4 sea bass filets

  Atlantic or Chilean
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 cup Irish butter
• juice of 1 large lemon
• 1/4 cup minced fresh Italian parsley
• 2-3 cloves garlic

  minced
• 1 diced tomato or 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herb of choice for garnish

Instructions

• 1 Preheat grill for medium-high heat, or 375 degrees F. Use a mild smoke producing
  wood or wood pellets for this recipe (alder, apple, etc.)
• 2 To prepare butter sauce: combine butter, lemon juice, garlic and parsley in a
  small saucepan over medium-low heat. Remove from heat once the butter has
  melted; about 1-2 minutes on the stove top. Set aside 1/4 cup of butter sauce
  for basting.
• 3 Blot fish dry with paper towels. Brush with a little olive oil. Combine sea
  salt, onion powder, paprika, pepper, and salt in a small bowl. Season well, and
  get the sides too.
• 4 Place fish on a well oiled grate and cook for 7 minutes. Brush with reserved
  butter sauce, flip (unless using a plank), close lid and cook for another 7
  minutes until sea bass reaches an internal temperature of 140-45 degrees F.
• 5 Remove fish from grill, plate, and drizzle with remaining butter sauce before
  serving. Garnish with chopped diced tomatoes or your favorite fresh herb.
